I have read, understand, and agree to adhere to the bylaws of the Minnesota Caving Club.
-
I understand that to hold office that I must be an NSS member.
-
If I reside in the state of MN and am an NSS member, I have listed, or will list, the Minnesota Caving Club as my primary grotto.
-
I understand that the board members are the decision-making body, but that any decision made by the Board can be overruled by a majority vote of the club members.
-
I will come prepared for caving activities / trips. Failure to do so will result in my inability to participate.
-
I will abide by the NSS Conservation Policy, which holds that (caving parties will) “provide for a means of removal of waste, limit marking to a few small, removable signs as needed for surveys, and especially, exercise extreme care not to accidentally break soil formations.”
-
If I lead any caving trips, I understand that I must submit a trip report within two weeks. Failure to do so will result in suspension of club benefits, including eligibility to participate in any other caving trips.
-
As a member of the Minnesota Caving Club, I pledge to support the preservation, protection, study, conscientious exploration and conservation of the caves of the Minnesota Cave Preserve, as well as other caves in Southeast Minnesota.
